p.38, Orlanth's Ring, 2nd para, 3rd sentence has major repetition from the 1st sentence. Also the 1st sentence mentions eleven stars rather than the normal eight, which then doesn't work when we get to p.39, 1st col, 1st para, 4th sentence, "eleven stars instead of eight", since the eight star version is not otherwise described here. p.39, Flood, 3rd sentence, "the area effected" -> "the area affected". p.43, 1st col, Spirit Magic, 2nd para, "Disrupt" -> "Disruption". p.46, Arroin, 2nd para, 2nd sentence, "Healing 6" -> *Heal 6". p.46, Restore Vision, 2nd sentence, "Heal Wounds" -> "Heal Wound". p.46, Refine Medicine, last sentence, "Finding Healing Plants" -> "Healing Plants" (to match the section title).

p.34, 1st col, last para, last sentence, "Orlanth religion" -> "Orlanthi religion" (as per p.21) p.35, Ingolf Dragonfriend, last para, last sentence, "like many of others" -> "like many others". p.36, Flood, 3rd sentence, "the area effected" -> "the area affected". p.37, Esrolia, 1st sentence "and ruled by" -> "and is ruled by".

p.29, Tribal King, 1st para, 2nd sentence, "They are permanent initiates of the Orlanth Rex" -> "They are permanent initiates of the Orlanth Rex subcult". p.30, Command Worshipers, the RBoM correction from the Well of Daliath has not been made here. p.30, Detect Honor, the RBoM correction from the Well of Daliath has not been made here

p.24, Temples, 1st para says that a wandering Wind Lord of Orlanth Adventurous has to own a cart. But p.27 says that a Storm Voice (Thunderous) has to have a cart and the Wind Lord requirements on pp.27-8 don't mention a cart being needed. p.26, Rune Spells, 1st para, last sentence, formatting issue with "Dismiss Air Elemental" breaking the last word unnecessarily. p.27, 1st col, Benefits and Restrictions, 3rd para, 1st sentence "an endangered member for their congregation" -> "an endangered member of their congregation". p.27, 2nd col, 2nd para, and throughout, "Lightbringers Summons" -> "Lightbringer's Summons" for consistency with p.13 box and index (or otherwise make consistent).

p.19, Since Time Began, 2nd para, 1st sentence, "the principle political" -> "the principal political". p.19, 2nd col, last para, 2nd sentence, "the identity of many deities was clarified" -> "the identities of many deities were clarified". p.21, Otherworld Home, 1st sentence, missing period/full stop after "world". p.24, Temples, 3rd para, 2nd sentence, "dedicated to subcults and associated deity" -> "dedicated to subcults and associated deities". p.25, 2nd col, 1st para, "the Windsday of Sacred Time" -> "the first Windsday of Sacred Time" (as per the Guide, since there are two weeks in Sacred Time). Cults of Prax had the same issue. p.26, Mundane Benefits, 2nd para, "Mobility Week" -> "Movement Week".

p.18, last sentence, has "making important links in a world fallen apart", which would appear to be the intended wording.

There are several references in the Guide to Glorantha to Prax containing areas of chaparral. e.g. p.441 "Prax: Beyond the oasis are the Plains of Prax, a chaparral and sagebrush desert." According to Merriam-Webster online, chaparral is:

Enchantments are a special type of spell. Most spells aren't Enchantments.

p.2, 2nd col, 3rd para, 1st sentence, "from gods appropriate for farmers and herders, to scribes…" doesn't make sense (scribes etc aren't deities). Suggest changing to "from gods appropriate for farmers and herders, to those for scribes …" or "from gods appropriate for people ranging from farmers and herders, to scribes …" or similar. p.3, Organization, 2nd para, last sentence, "Gods Time" -> "God Time". p.6, 1st col, 1st para, last sentence, "and includes" -> "and include" (plural "goddesses" and "deities range"). p.11, Vadrus, 1st sentence, ( "included towards violence" doesn't make sense. Suggest changing to "included unrestrained violence" to bring it in line with the Prosopaedia.) EDIT as @Jason Farrell said, "included towards violence" -> "inclined towards violence".

As @Joerg already pointed out about your Lightbringers review, the Prosopaedia and Mythology books are part of the ten-volume set, not in addition. So it's eight cult books plus the Prosopaedia and Mythology.

As soon as the cover art is available on a Red Bubble t-shirt, I will be buying it.

Hopefully @Jeff won't mind me posting up here a useful snippet that he wrote on Facebook about the Prosopaedia: Jeff wrote: So now that many of you all have the Prosopaedia, let me talk a little bit about the book. The Prosopaedia was obviously inspired by the short pamphlet of the same name in RQ3's Gods of Glorantha. As I was working on the Cults Books, I added all the short entries for deities into the file so I could keep track of them. Eventually the file became so big that there was no reason not to turn it into a book. This gave me an opportunity to do some God Learner mythic synthesis to the RQ canon. The book assumes the reality of these deities - they are real parts of the cosmos and not simply cultural constructs. Naming conventions were simplified - it doesn't really help to throw out a lot of First Age local names we now in the Third Age have a standard name for. So no Lanatum, Doburdun, Orlanatus, etc - Orlanth covers all of that. A few exceptions get made of course - so Buserian gets an entry independent from Lhankor Mhy. The later Cults book makes it clear that it is the same cult, but scribes can't help but be pendantic. There are plenty of other intentionally loose threads, such as Bredjeg, the many names for Lightfore, etc. These exceptions are deliberate, and often are there to help explain things and resolve questions. Because the scope of the book is all of Glorantha, connections and ties become apparent. Where I felt it was important to throw a reference in the see other entry I did, but if I did that for every association the book would be a sea of red. The book is not intended to be read from front to back (any more than an encyclopedia is), but rather it is intended to let you take a meandering tour of Glorantha's cosmology. Start with a favorite god and then jump around. You'll find that all of the pieces together form an overarching story - the so-called monomyth. Each of the entries has its place within that mythic architecture, although it is often not apparent from the individual entry. To me that is the genius of Greg's Glorantha. Individual myths might be standalone. But collectively there is an architecture to the mythology that ties it all together. My hope is that you enjoy the Prosopaedia as much as I have!

Looks amazing so far. Where would you like typos to be posted? Presumably not a very urgent task since the books have been printed already.

I'll add myself to the list of people who intuitively read 7M3 as being 7 Masteries. In English we don't talk about having "Masteries three", we refer to "three Masteries". Yes, I understand what the rules mean here but it's always seemed very awkward to me.

You say po-tay-toe, I say po-tah-toe ...

This sounds so far up my street it's a must-buy for me. So I just bought it.

You may be in luck. The sticky post on Upcoming Glorantha Publications suggests that, as well as heroquesting rules coming to us via the GM book, we can also expect a separate Heroquesting sourcebook.

GPT stands for Grab and Plagiarise Text.

As Kloster said, p.145 of the core rulebook: "As with other rolls, resistance rolls may result in critical successes, special successes, and fumbles".

Well the price drop of the starter set PDF to 99c is certainly a very shrewd move! Especially given the amazing content in the starter ser.

13th Age Glorantha also has quite a bit on heroquesting.

Edit - never mind. Why do I bother?
